Defiance ETFs has submitted an ETF application that complies with the provisions of the GENIUS Act.

ME News, May 21 (UTC+8): Bloomberg ETF analyst James Seyffart said that Defiance ETFs has filed an application for a new type of money market ETF that complies with the GENIUS Act. The Act provides a federal regulatory framework for the issuance of payment-type stablecoins, imposing stricter reserve standards than traditional money market funds. The fund is intended to meet the requirements of the U.S. Stablecoin Act for eligible reserve assets. (Source: MLion)

Reserves are more strict than MMF, but they call it an ETF and not a stablecoin, clearly playing regulatory arbitrage.

Are reserve standards stricter than MMF? Then how does the yield break even? I'm curious about how the underlying assets are allocated.

The name "GENIUS Act" is well-chosen; even the lawmakers in Congress understand marketing.

Defiance's actions are quite quick. If this ETF structure gets approved, it would be like opening a compliant backdoor for USDC.

James Seyffart's sources are always reliable; this time, the estimate is probably quite accurate.

The federal framework is finally here. Are state Money Transmitter licenses about to become a thing of the past?

It feels like this is paving the way for BlackRock, with Defiance being small enough to experiment and make mistakes.

MLion I hadn't paid attention to this source before; this time I'll cross-verify with Bloomberg.

What exactly do the requirements for qualified reserve assets refer to? Is there a minimum proportion for government bonds?
